UK Dragon Ball Discussion Thread

Post by Paradox295 » Thu Jul 15, 2010 10:44 am

Right, I think we were spamming up the DBox 3 thread, so let's start a thread for UK discussions

Here's the releases of the series we have had so far

TV Airings
Cartoon Network: 2000-2002
Aired: Saiyan-Babidi sagas
Voices: Funimation dub for Freeza-Garlic Jr., Ocean for the rest

CNX: 2002-2003
Aired: Majin Buu-Kid Buu sagas and DBGT, reruns of DBZ,
Voices: Ocean for Majin Buu and Kid Buu. Funimation for Fusion (reruns used Ocean), Blue Water for DBGT

Toonami: 2003-2005?
Aired: DB and DBGT?, Reruns of DBZ
Voices: Blue Water for DB

DVD Releases
Movie 2: 'Big Green' dub
Movie 3: 'Big Green' dub
Movie 4: 'Big Green' dub
Anything else has no chance of being released here. Kai could be released here if Manga UK thinks it's profitable, otherwise, just import from Amazon.co.uk Marketplace or Play.com Trade :(

In the DBox 3 thread, oXdanXo, said he recorded DBZ episodes, so if he has some DBZ promos on the DVDs, I'll post those too.

Cool, a UK Dragon Ball thread! :)

Paradox295, according to Wikipedia CNX also showed Dragon Ball GT. I know never to trust Wikipedia, so is that true?

I don't remember if CNX/Toonami premiered DBGT before or after the name change, I'm gonna go with what Wikipedia says

On toonami it was Blue Water for GT, I'll take a look at one of my recordings and find out who did the blue green dub, we also had movie 1 5 6 7 8 & 9 by the same "Big Green Dub" all under different names, like Super android 13 = Super Galaxy warrior.

To be honest though I miss the edits like "home for infinite loosers" it never effected me that they changed things like death to next dimension, but things like HFIL were things I miss on the funi DVDs.
What stuff do you want off the DVDs I'll try and upload them as long as it's legal?
Next to get; Leged of Saiyan figures and Freeza's force

If anyone sees
Any of the Legend of Saiyan line going cheapish
Or any other Banpresto DBZ figure :)

If anyone has a cooler steelbook dvd that wants to sell it (prefer new but used is fine) when/if the dragon box movies comes out contact me :)

If you're on about movies then that's 9x50=450 mins.

Yeah, I also remember Toonami airing all of GT, (since I remember rushing home from school everyday to watch it). I also remember Toonami airing movie 1,9,7, and the two TV Specials (dubbed by the "Big Green" company, of course).

DB & Tiger and Bunny are my main fandoms, along with many other animes.

Yes that's it, I think I'm going to watch that first.
I've already watched some of the Nappa-Vegeta bits but skipped Raditz.
The only DBZ promo stuff I've seen so far has been a few cartoon network promos & a CNX coming soon & like toonami box things like this.

I think CNX changed its name to Toonami by the time GT started airing.

GT was disapointing but I did enjoy the music. I also remember some point in the Bebi arc they showed 2 episodes out of order so recording the show was a pain at the time.

I got the lot on 4 video tapes.

The AB Groupe dub's title is Super Saiyan, Goku, and the Malaysian dub's title is Super Saiya People, Goku.

Here's a list of the AB Groupe dub's movie titles.

The Pursuit of Garlic - M1
The Strongest Guy In the World - M2
Super Battle In the World - M3
Super Saiyan, Goku - M4
Super Rivals - M5
Fight! 10 Billion Power Warriors - M6
Super Battle of the Three Super Saiyans - M7
The Burning Battles - M8
Super Guy in the Galaxy - M9
The Father of Goku - SP1
Gohan and Trunks - SP2

Does anyone have a recording of the other movies? I'm especially interested in the DB movies.

Y'know, I remember Corey found of a YouTube clip of a Big Green dub of The Sleeping Princess in Devil's Castle. I wonder if he still has it...

I assume the reason why AB Groupe didn't do movies 10-13 because "Big Green" wasn't in them. :P

Then again, that didn't stop them from doing Bardock, Trunks, and DB Movie 2.

Ah, yes, I remember that. It was "Gohan and Goten - The Worst Brotherly Spat", or when Baby/Bebi possesses Goten and then Gohan, and the episode where Baby/Bebi first appears on Earth and is about to fight Goten, that were swapped around. I remember the hell in recording that too. I think I had to record it over again on the +1 channel to get it in order.
